Well, it was actually nickel plating, and I had to use several different grades of sand paper by hand. Then I polished it. There are still places where the plating exists and I am debating whether to take those off or not.
This was not as bad as a US Civil War foot officer's sword I restored for someone years ago that was double nickel plated.  That one took a very long time.
